DNAsp – Metal Finishing Production Control

DNAsp is a specialist production control system designed specifically for metal finishing and treatment companies. Built on decades of aerospace treatment experience, it provides complete Nadcap traceability from quotation through to dispatch, giving customers confidence in quality and compliance.

The system manages the full production cycle, including quotations, invoicing, job splitting and grouping, and detailed process control. It supports a wide range of surface treatments such as anodising, plating, heat treating, and powder coating, and is flexible enough to accommodate customer-specific requirements. DNAsp enables monitoring of vat chemical levels, tracks parts through shared ovens, enforces quarantine for out-of-date stock, and generates Certificates of Conformity to guarantee plating thickness and quality standards.

DNAsp also strengthens business performance by combining robust traceability with advanced job costing and analysis, allowing true costs and margins to be identified. Job grouping and splitting optimise throughput while maintaining compliance, and consumables management ensures that hazardous materials and precious metals are properly tracked. Quality control is supported through non-conformance logging, reject analysis, and root-cause tracking.

Dynamic dashboards and reporting tools provide real-time visibility of KPIs across all departments, giving managers the information they need to monitor performance, plan resources, and maintain compliance in highly regulated industries.

With its combination of flexibility, traceability, and sector-specific features, DNAsp equips metal finishing businesses to deliver consistent quality, improve efficiency, and remain competitive in demanding markets.
